  1. I miss the old shared rental haha- we had an 900 SQFT garage and a 1000+ SQft basement. My house now its a 3 bed at 900 Sq ft but its MINE. Come a long away from that kid who was living with his parents when I joined this forum so long ago. I do get to have as many sheds as I want as long as they are less than 256sqft
  2. I really should, my nice clean background was lost in the move from my last home... that and the Lego room. But I've got my own house now and slowly working on getting a new shed to become to Lego room. An attic is a terrible place to try and set up a train table lol
  3. Yes the original design was to have the reactors there in the center of what would be the boiler, tried to make the upside down domes a focal point. The steam is suppose to flow towards the center into a turnbine.... but after a few years and a whole lotta crashes I removed the original drive wheels and fly wheel arrangement and replaced them with 4x4 bogies with large drivers. Just runs so much smoother and handles the r/48 curves much more reliably, No more jumping the track and shattering. Poor quality photo but you can see the lights,
  4. Some ideas in the work but mostly been amassing a horde like a dragon. Made a large order from BBB before they went kaput. And pulled the pneumatic train from the dregs. Its been a long road and my house is currently eating up all my attention these days.
  5. Got to stretch its legs at RVA Brick Day 2026 Really flying on the r88 curves. Rebuilt all the lights on it too
  6. On Rev4 now, 1 PUP motor and it eats batteries like nothing else, but it doesn't derail anymore so its pretty great. Prolly gonna just go back to having the PF motors in it tho Also redid the lights in it to be more professional. I'll post pics of it later
  7. Here is a mega project I have completed recently for our LUG's RVA Brick Day event It's a modular bridge designed for quick assembly for events! Its 2 major pieces, a straight section with rails attached and a leg section that used jumper plates for a loose but stable connection The curves are transported separately assembled. Here is is at RVA brick day, https://imgur.com/nVskADV The yellow line is about 12 feet with a PUP tram running back and forth on a color sensor Here is some more images of it in set up. Ashland Train day!, Working on getting the red line ready to be attached to Andy's 3 Era's Mega display for the next go around, One big continuous mega city is the dream.
  8. Not dead discord is where the Legos is.    

  9. What a blast from the past, I forgot about this helpful post from 11 years ago this month, I've been working on new 9v power system as my own personal project, working on grabbing the right size of wheels and searching for the "pizza cutter" variety originally listed, I think I've found them but amazon and ebay have ruined my trust of smaller websites that sell stuff. Right now the only think I can make a FUNCTIONAL copy of is 9V track. Copper foil tape 1/4in is the perfect size to tape to regular PF track to tape to the rails and give power without issue.
  10. This an an absolutely amazing layout and I am blown away by the time and attention to detail you've put into this set! So great seeing it at every show ya bring it to! Seeing it in person is a treat as always with yesterday show :) - Bear/Tyler Ya should share the photos of it from the event! Actually who was taking photos for the LUG? Haha
  11. Hey y'all! I'm back with more nonsense, so here are modular mini city blocks! A whole city block in 1 MILS plate! I prefer the Creator 3-in-1's small modular buildings to the full sized modular buildings... and turns out since creator buildings are about 8 deep and about a 4 wide side walk you can fit two rows of buildings onto 1 32x32 MILS plate! By using the 8x16 plates you can make thin 1 way or alley way streets! And it's very easy to add a little over hang into the base for extra depth and details and such. You do need to make a new type of MILS road plate to connect to these 8 wide roads. Alright here's the rest! A mod of the 31131: Downtown Noodle Shop A MOC inspired by 7641: City Corner A news station! \] A MOC based on a local Pharmacy and Deli that has been around for over 75 years. Stacking market stalls. Some sort of hotel? I'm still working this one out, working with some big bricks and just makes it a little dark. Here is a, moc? Mod? A rip from a video game that isnt Lego? No one I know ever played Blockland or knows any deep cut Blockland lore so I ripped the gas station from the best premade map in the game Everyone needs to use more DUPLO in builds, there are so many cool structural parts that fit into most MOCs! Thank you for getting to the end of pink sprinkle city!
  12. I picked up a complete in box copy of the best hospital set Lego has made over the summer! I've been working on MILS-ing every one of my MOCS and I really wanted this in my city... so I made it a complete building! Something weird is going on inside though... Set 6380-1 Emergency Treatment Center!
  13. Working on that as we speak! I got a hold of a ton of 8x16 road plates and have been building whole city blocks in the space of a single MILS plate, and its all modular!.
  14. Hey Y'all! It's me again! I don't really have much to say about it but here is my "totally not a Christmas" train! It's cute! It's very small! It's just Christmasy enough to be in season but not too Christmasy to look out of place any other time of year. I did take some inspiration from Jason Steinhurst and their Vulcan Iron Works 0-4-0T Whole Train. Locomotive and tender. Gondola Passenger Car Caboose
  15. I'm am doing well! Since I joined RVALug I get a lot of my train fix there and don't visit the forum as much, and honestly I don't have a lot of completed mocs to share! I have been working on a Christmas train thats almost ready to share, but this forum doesn't need any more of my half baked projects and ideas hahah.
